About Me

“I have had the privilege of working in a wide variety of roles and sectors including CEO of a social impact start up, independent consultant, ITO director and a seasoned senior executive. I am a strategic thinker and innovator and thrive in an environment of change. My core strength is an ability to synthesise a myriad of data points and apply my strategic insights and design skills to the complex challenges facing communities and organisations. My core passion is to support people to achieve amazing things. I have had significant governance experience as well as extensive experience in the corporate end of town having led a management consulting practice in one of the Big 4 global firms and served in a number of senior management roles in some of NZ’s leading corporates helping to shape significant strategic change. I have been active in sport all my life, playing a range of sports at school level and as an adult participating in marathons (more recently half marathons), triathlons and ocean swimming. I am an active tramper and sometime cyclist. I passionately believe in the ability of sport to change lives for the better. I owe so much to sport personally.”
